Aaaw bless him Ruth. So sweet to be wanting to sniff & wash them......poor little fella for being frightened by the pup. He is absolutely gorgeous, so it hopefully won't be long before he trots off to his forever sofa. xx

My Bob (We can Yes) is also related to Brett Lee and when we went to training on a one off occassion as we happened to be in the area (too far for a regular thing for us unfortunately) Linda asked me if he had Brett Lee in his bloodline! Another common thing with 'Brett Lees' is that they are often wide runners. Zak is such a handsome boy and Lena is just gorgeous.....as was made official at the GGG in Nottingham!

McCartney (Henry) was also returned today with Santa. A sad day when we have 2 dogs returned.

Lennon (Santa) has been returned today, the owners had problems with the neighbours and felt it couldn't be resolved. Its not easy returning a dog and the owner was upset.

Buster is cat friendly - but he likes to get close to them to sniff and wash them - as he did on his cat test. Sadly he was unable to do this in his new home as the cats became petrified of him. We had a visit from an Afghan puppy yesterday and tried to introduce him and Buster was petrified..... his tail went between his legs and he wouldn't go near and turned away back into the kennels 🙁 He is such a fabulous boy and if I wasn't looking after Lachlan at home at the moment for a friend, he would be at our house. He is a gentle, lovely boy who just needs some time and patience in a new home if he is to live with other animals.

Hi Jak'smom. You are so right. We have Lena (Aghaburren Lena) who is by Brett Lee and she bears more than a passing resemblance to Zak here, and is very much like her father in looks. He's one handsome boy. x

It must have been a very difficult decision, especially as he did seem very cat friendly when you tested him, but it was the right 1 for them. Thinking of them and their cat as well as poor Buster. xx A friend of ours took on a Grey (from a rescue). Been in the home 3 hours, had tea and she let him into the garden after with no muzzle on. He leapt up to drag the cat off of the shed roof and although he didn't kill it instantly it had to be PTS (RIP Lisa) They were obviously devastated 🙁 I am sure that someone will be along to give Buster a home very soon xx

Thanks Julie - much appreciated. I'd like to get Mia checked as she does seem prone to corns - our other greyhound, Evi, doesn't seem to have a problem at all. I really appreciate your taking the trouble to reply. Have a good new year!
